Free association.

Freedom of the individual.

/r/Libertarian is for both philosophical and political libertarians of all kinds including, but not limited to the various "types" listed below, and is not associated with the Libertarian Party. This is a community to discuss free markets and free societies with free minds. As such, we truly believe in spontaneous order and don't formally regulate content (as encouraged by reddiquette). A few general guidelines will help everyone:

Please don't downvote comments. Especially because you disagree with a comment. No one should be shut out of a conversation because you disagree with them. In this subreddit: One is zero, zero is negative. No one should be below zero unless it's pharma spam or something.

Participate and submit content Please take some time to submit things that foster discussion on libertarian topics. This is not meant to discourage image macros, which are nothing more than glorified self posts, and are allowed in /r/libertarian. Read through those links if you want, but don't message us about it.

Report off topic pharma/revenue spam only, not trolling, or content or comments you disagree with.

Don't like the content? DON'T REPORT IT OR MESSAGE US ABOUT IT ... since we aren't going to tag it, remove it or ban anyone. Go to the new queue and vote on the submissions there if the content bothers you.

So when I went few weeks ago to the County office to make sure I am registered to vote... She confirmed that I am and asked since I haven't voted yet, do I know how to/will I need help?... Well I am a tech savy mid 20s dude and I think I can figure this out the first time I see it but I replied "to let her tell me what she knows" just to make sure that she tells me anything I might not know about the voting booth. So she was very helpful. But what struck me a bit was that she finished with this "...so you if still have any trouble voting you can come ask for help who ever is there and they will make sure to get one Democrat and one Republican to walk in with you into the booth.

I thanked her I figured they do this so as to prevent influence if only one walked in but what immediately struck me as she said it was "What about a Libertarian?" :-)

But is that really how this works?

Honestly I just want to go in and vote as quickly as I can but now I sort of want to ask for help just so both of these party reps come in with me to see me vote Libertarian. Can I bring in a GoPro in there to watch it afterwards?

EDIT: I wish they could fight to death for my vote, and the winner gets to see me vote... still libertarian.
